I'm putting together a group to attend the NRA Annual Meeting on April 26 to 28th in Indianapolis. 85,000 NRA members are attending the event which includes an expo, legal seminars, guest appearances and workshops. It's one of those things you have to attend at least once, and is better than SHOT show for the firearm enthusiast. It s good experience and training if you want to get involved in gun rights activism.
